Comparing Methods of Defining Priority Areas for Greater Sage-Grouse

Description: Article comparing priority areas for wildlife species using different methods and data types. The authors used resource selection function (RSF) models to predict high priority areas and compared this to priority areas developed using two alternative methods: (1) modified conservation buffer, and (2) utilization distribution (UD) models.

Do gene-environment interactions play a role in COVID-19 distribution? The case of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin, air pollution and COVID-19

Description: This article evaluates the role that gene-environment interaction between air-pollution and Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) genes plays in the severity of COVID-19. Results find parallelism between the number of COVID deaths and the AAT*air pollution global risk in Europe.

An Efficient Synthesis of Deoxyrhapontigenin-3-O-β-d-glucuronide, a Brain-Targeted Derivative of Dietary Resveratrol, and Its Precursor 4′-O-Me-Resveratrol

Description: Article discusses the identification of the brain-available phenol glucuronide metabolite deoxyrhapontigenin-3-O-β-d-glucuronide (5) in perfused rat brains following subacute treatment with the stilbene resveratrol.

Experimental and Computational Studies of the Kinetics of the Reaction of Hydrogen Atoms with Carbon Disulfide

Description: Article discussing an investigation of the reaction of H + CS₂ products. The reaction was found to be pressure dependent and in the fall-off region or near the low pressure limit. Transition state theory yields an estimate for the high-pressure limit of addition over 290–300 K of 1.3 × 10−9 exp( −7.2 kJ mol −1 /RT) cm3 molecule −1 s −1. Uncertainties are discussed in the text.

Experimental and Modeling Study of Water Time Histories during H2S-N2O Combustion in a Shock Tube

Description: Article describes how, in the present study, the water formation was followed by laser absorption with N2O as an oxidant, instead of O2. Three H2S/N2O mixtures diluted in 98% Ar were studied to cover the following range of equivalence ratios: 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0, over a wide range of temperatures (1580–1940 K) around atmospheric pressure.

Fractal structure of human and primate social networks optimizes information flow

Description: Article describes how primate and human social groups exhibit a fractal structure that has a very limited range of preferred layer sizes. The authors calculate the size dependence of the scaling properties of complex social network models and argue that this aggregate behavior exhibits a form of collective intelligence.

Haptoglobin Gene Expression and Anthracycline-Related Cardiomyopathy in Childhood Cancer Survivors: A COG-ALTE03N1 Report

Description: Article describes how anthracycline-related cardiomyopathy is a leading cause of premature death in childhood cancer survivors. The authors interrogated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) to identify genetic variants serving regulatory functions or genetic variants not easily identified when using genomewide array platforms.

Machine Learning Quantitative Structure–Property Relationships as a Function of Ionic Liquid Cations for the Gas-Ionic Liquid Partition Coefficient of Hydrocarbons

Description: This article presents a study with the aim to develop quantitative structure–property relationships (QSPRs) that would allow the understanding of molecular interactions in ionic liquids based on the structure of the cationic moiety.

Reactions of hydrazine with the amidogen radical and atomic hydrogen

Description: Article describes how the rate coefficient k1 for NH2 + N2H4 was measured to be (5.4 ± 0.4) × 10−14 cm3 molecule−1 s−1 at 296 K. The authors then describe how a combination of experiment and theory leads to a recommended rate coefficient for hydrogen abstraction of k1 = 6.3 × 10−23 T3.44 exp(+289 K/T) cm3 molecule−1 s−1.

Toward a More Rational Design of the Direct Synthesis of Aniline: A Density Functional Theory Study

Description: This article uses plane-wave density functional theory calculations to investigate the direct amination of benzene catalyzed by a Ni(111) surface to explore the reaction intermediates and to understand the role of nickel in this reaction.
